Course Description

INTRODUCTION

This GLOMACS Road and Infrastructure Maintenance training course will help the participants to understand the need to adequately address road maintenance issues to enable the reduction of lifecycle costs of the road network and infrastructure. Traditionally, activity in the roads sub-sector has focused on the design and construction of new roads. Still, as the road networks have substantially completed in many countries, the focus is shifting to maintaining existing roads. 

Companies involved in road maintenance should, therefore, understand that road maintenance is a fundamentally different process from that of building new roads, as the construction activity usually involves projects with a defined start and finish, but maintenance is continuous. 

Engineering issues dominate design and construction; maintenance is essentially a management problem. The improvement of maintenance often involves institutional reform, human resource development, and changes to management practices before addressing technical issues, as these are the main elements of the road maintenance philosophy.

This GLOMACS training course will highlight:

  • Lifecycle Cost of the Road Network
  • Maintenance Management Planning and Execution
  • Development of Maintenance Strategies
  • Maintenance Prioritization
  • Budgeting and Financial Issues related to Road Maintenance
  • Implementation of Modern Tools and Technologies in Road Inventory Management
  • Maintenance Sustainability
